Hey, I've finished properly tuning my Nitro 4Tec .15 but now I noticed that it seems to change gear very early. I searched and found the page on the traxxas site but it didnt help me. I still find it difficult to understand which hole I should be turning clockwise.

in between the 2 gears, there is a hole..you may have to turn the gears a little, but when lined up correctly you will see a set screw..if your shifting to early, you want to turn it clockwise about 1/8 turn at a time till its set to where you want it to shift.

if you would like me to post a picture let me know, and I will take a pic of my 4-tec so you can see the set screw

Yeah I know where to find the holes, but there are two and I'm not sure which one it is.

If all cars are the same, then it's the one off to the side, not the one directly to the middle.
That's how it is for RS4's

RS4's are completely different

Yeah, but he says there are two. Isn't looking into a hole that small for a screw kinda hard to see? Lol

its the screw thats most visible, not the one that goes deep down. that one holds it in place. if you are turning it counter clockwise it should be the 2nd screw, the one you can see the best. its also kind of set at an angle.
